Milwaukee School Board Positions

Interested in Running for the MPS Board?

Advocates for Student Achievement (ASA) is a new organization designed to increase academic achievement for every student in Milwaukee by recruiting and electing knowledgeable school board members to the Milwaukee School Board – the body that sets policies for the Milwaukee Public School System (MPS).

The next election for the MPS board will be in the spring of 2009, for districts 4, 5, 6 and 7 (map below). Recruiting and preparing strong candidates for this vital but challenging job takes time, however. So ASA and the GMAR are asking for your help now -- either as a potential candidate or to identify others who may be qualified and interested in running.

If you are a resident of the City of Milwaukee and live in the 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th districts – or if you are interested in running for one of the other seats at a later date – please contact Anne Curley by email at anne@curleycommunication.com or by phone at 262-785-9300.

Anne will be able to tell you what exactly is involved in running for, and serving, in this part-time position.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact GMAR Governmental Affairs Director, Marne Stück, at mjs@gmar.ws.
